Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for posting your query at HealthcareMagic.

This seems like a muscular pain or tension headache. You can try ibuprofen 200 mg 2 times a day when paracetamol is not working. To rule out cervical/vertebral cause you need to consult an orthopedic surgeon and get appropriate tests done. If cervical cause is ruled out then a neurologist should be consulted.

Hope it helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
